It's football. You just need to be slim and seen sparingly to become an object of lust
You call it as you see it, and I agree with you whole heartedly
The end of the season was ridiculously shit from our forward line, seeing the 3 stooges contrived to miss chance after chance.
Salah, indecisive, and seemed to have lost the ability to generate any power from his shots.
Nunez, has forgotten how to even hit the crossbar / post. Sulky, ineffective and missing a brain. Starting to lose patience with this nutjob.
Diaz, runs and runs to nowhere and seems to have caught Nunez's bug of an inability to hit the net. Dreaming of Barca.
I would sell all 3, they ain't getting any better. Just bring in some other players, what could be worse?

Salah was given game after game to play himself into form. He never did, he was just as shit as Nunez and less useful in my opinion.
Nunez was dropped and another style of play used. If life was fair both of them should have been dropped. That would tend to provoke some resentment. Salah is a special case and he also has no direct available replacement. We're looking at the background of videos to see how one player reacted to sitting on the bench for game after game, meanwhile the other striker threw a massive strop in public, in the game, when dropped and subbed on.
Poor Ali
Tbf the cunts not scored in ages so he deserves it. Probably the easiest to kidnap as well; someone just needs to get the urn
I realize I have sympathy for Darwin since at football all the lads call me Nuñez cos I score screamers and miss open goals
Looks like the sulky bastard cheered up the shindig

Maybe the DJ was praising Nunez with his favourite banger - which made him happy.
I'm holding an envelope that has three names in it. The names of three dads who won't make it through this season....
I've tried to be as generous as I can be; but there's 20 there that should have been goals. Any other generation of Liverpool teams, their striker finishes over half those chances.
Damn.
Had he put a quarter of those away we’d be champions. But the attack isn’t an issue or something.
Can it be trained? Fowler says he hates being called a natural finisher because he feels he practiced more than anyone with his repeated shooting practices. He wasn't born a scoring genius.
But I'm sure most of those practices came at a young age. Can Darwin do it? Having doubts about him, and he seems to be extremely fragile mentally..

It's a mental thing in Darwin's case imo, so yes it can be trained.
But then there's a question of how receptive he is to that training.
And honestly, he doesn't look like the sharpest tool in the shed.
The Polish dude, the one who's name I can't spell, him. Well, he talks about joining Dortmund and Klopp training him and turning him into the goal machine he became.
Nunez had 2 years of training with the guy that helped create one of the best ever and hasn't improved. Sell while he has some value.

I really would love to see him bang into 30 goals next season
We all would love to see him bang in 30 goals next season.
That doesn’t mean he’s going to do it though.
100 million Nigerian dollars is more likely.
I took a look at those misses and whether they would have secured us more points (as a lot of them were in games we won anyway). Up-shot is we'd still have finished third:
Impact on individual results
Luton - plus 2 points
City - plus 2 points (and City minus 1 point)
United - plus 2 points
Palace - plus 1 point
Revised table:
City 90pts
Arsenal 89pts
Us 89pts (behind Arsenal on GD).

I am not sure we would have readily dropped points in the Everton, West Ham and Villa games if we were leading the league/ still in the title race at that point.
A change in any one of those game's results would have seen us champions
